Looks great! A dangerous skill has been obtained :D

I don’t believe for a second this is someone’s first pizza.
I don't know how to prove it, but it truly is. I was so pleased with it I actually cried.

Except maybe to share my first bread project six months ago, this monstrosity
I would love to say my first time making pizza dough looked that good, but no, the stuff I make still looks worse than that...
Looks amazing! You sure this was your first time?
First time with pizza dough, yes! I was actually really worried that I thinned out one section near the edge too much as it was getting damn near see-through. I performed some emergency transplant operations to try and shore that part up, and was actually pretty pleased with the outcome as it was janky as all hell lol. You really wouldn't be able to see the spot in question in this pic, as it was on the underside, but after a through mouth inspection I can report it did work out alright!
I also was really, really surprised at how round I got it in the end because it did not start that way. I was really struggling to get the shape for a while. Weirdly, the second one I baked I had a much easier time with the shape (as I had more practice by that point, of course) but it didn't get quite as much rise in the oven. I'm wondering if it had more to do with the toppings, as it had quite a bit of ham and pineapple on that one.
